Downloads
I'm too lazy to upload TARDIS files to Bukkit anymore, as builds are automatically created when the plugin is updated and changes pushed to GitHub.
Version specific downloads can be found here: https://tardis.pages.dev/download
Please make sure you are using the latest Spigot/Paper builds (for the Minecraft version you are running) before installing TARDIS or creating an issue!
What it does
TARDIS is a plugin that gives you the ability to create a Police Box that lets you time travel (teleport) to random locations. It adds a Whovian twist to the typical /sethome and /home commands.
As a player, you can:
- Create a TARDIS that is bigger on the inside.
- Time travel to a random location.
- Time travel back home (where you created the TARDIS initially).
- Save and list interesting time travel locations, so you can return to them easily.
- Take companions with you when you time travel.
- Make your TARDIS blend in with the Chameleon Circuit.
- Use your own schematic to build the TARDIS interior
- Grow new TARDIS rooms
- Use Artron Energy
- Remote control the TARDIS
- Custom TARDIS sounds with companion Resource Pack
- Custom TARDIS textures with companion Resource Pack

Installation
As a minimum, just drop the TARDIS.jar, TARDISChunkGenerator.jar (look under Additional Files on the download page) and any optional plugins listed below into the Bukkit plugins folder and start your server. For more detailed instructions see: https://tardis.pages.dev/installation-v5
Optional installs
These are not needed for TARDIS to function, but enhance the plugin with extra features...
- Install the TARDIS-SoundResourcePack in the Minecraft client to hear custom TARDIS sounds
- Install the TARDIS-Resource-Pack to see aal the fancy textures and models (requires TARDIS v4.2 or higher).
- Install the TARDISChunkGenerator plugin so that you can generate TARDISes in their own self-contained world (included on the TARDIS plugin download page under Additional files).
- Install WorldGuard to automatically protect your TARDIS from griefing, and stop mobs spawning in TARDIS worlds.
- Install TARDISWeepingAngels to add some Whovian mobs to the game.
- Install a Permissions plugin, so that you can restrict or grant players the rights to use TARDIS’ different features. We like PermissionsBukkit.

Bugs / Requests
Please post a ticket for TARDIS plugin requests and bugs, thank you :)
WARNING: I am no longer prepared to waste my time looking at incomplete tickets. If your ticket does not follow the guidelines set out below, it will be deleted immediately!
Make sure you have read the FAQs first, as your question may already be answered there. Also make sure you have searched for a previous ticket with the same/similar issue (use the Filters to search closed tickets).
If you are going to create a BUG ticket you need to supply relevant information (as I'm not a mind reader, nor do I have access to your server...) - as a minimum you need:
- Exact CraftBukkit version i.e. NOT 'the latest' - use the
/tardis versioncommand if possible, otherwise copy from server log - Exact TARDIS version i.e. NOT 'the latest' - use the
/tardis versioncommand if possible, otherwise copy from server log - The server log showing the entire error (as a paste or at Pastebin - NOT a screenshot) - this should be the log from when the server starts up right through to when the error occurs
- If no error in the log, then a video of the bug happening or the EXACT steps needed to reproduce the issue.
- Attach your plugins/TARDIS/config.yml file or other configuration file if relevant
- Attach your plugins/TARDIS/TARDIS.db file if relevant
- List of other plugins on server
Stats
Basic statistics are collected for some versions of the TARDIS plugin (v2.5.8 and earlier). You can opt out at any time by setting opt-out: true in plugins/PluginMetrics/config.yml
External web access
Version 2.8 (and higher) of this plugin includes a translation feature (the /tardissay command) that connects to the Lingva translation service.
You can prevent players from using the command by removing / not giving them the permission tardis.translate

Glad to hear you're up and running :) If I get time, I'll stop by and have a look around.
Yep, Multiworld works well, there is also support for MyWorlds (though I don't think that has been updated to 1.5.2 yet). I prefer Multiverse myself.

It does look like a heart, didn't notice that :) Just need to add some more checks (permissions / respecting other plugins) to make sure the player is allowed to actually travel to the destination.

There is no setting to turn off perms, the best you can do is to make yourself op

Everything's working now... I set up the full features on MinecraftInferno.com, and it's brilliant. I still am not sure how to set up the texture pack, so I'll be looking into that.
An awesome plugin, very popular with the players, helping bring in donations...
Speaking of which, I'd like to send you a donation, and invite you to visit MinecraftInferno.com.
By the way, you should know that it works perfectly with Multiworld just like Multiverse. :)

Posted Jun 22, 2013You can now also choose how big a step you want to increment by
The 4 default steps are 10, 25, 50, and 100.
If you were to do a
/tardisadmin terminal_step 2, then the values would become 20, 50, 100, and 200./tardisadmin terminal_step 3, then the values would become 30, 75, 150, and 300 etc, etc.-

Posted Jun 22, 2013Been working on a new feature this evening that I think is pretty cool, would welcome some feedback...
It doesn't actually set the destination yet, but if you want to have a play, grab the JAR from the Jenkins links above.
/tardis update terminal-

EDIT: Have made the EPS NPC look at players, and set its yaw to face the centre of the TARDIS if the spawn location has been changed, will be in the next release

Yes some of the controls will be added automatically, but some require special blocks in the schematic that get converted to the correct type when the TARDIS is built. For example the handbrake is actually a CAKE block in the schematic (as there are likely to be other LEVERs in the schematic), when the TARDIS is grown its location is remembered and the CAKE is converted to a LEVER. Likewise, the scanner button is a MOB SPAWNER, the save-sign is a SILVERFISH block.
Schematics should only have one stone button, one wood button, one sign and 4 repeaters. The Artron Capacitor Creeper spawns on a Command Block.
Currently, you can't add new TARDIS schematics, but you can replace existing ones (just use the same filename).

In the console it will show the TARDIS version, or do a
/tardis version- if it says 2.4-pre then you didn't replace the file correctly-

Posted Jun 21, 2013Have you accidently uploaded the same File both in the 2.4 and the 2.4-pre version? I'm asking because even after updating it says in the console, that there is a new version out. Also I can't use the new /tardis update features so...

Posted Jun 21, 2013ok, thanks. BTW, how do you have it automagically recognize the buttons/repeaters/etc. when it builds from a custom schematic? also, is it possible to add a custom TARDIS type? i.e. make it so that an obsidian block would make another type of TARDIS (without you having to add it in the full plugin)?

Ok. Will do hopefully tomorrow. Sorry I've been so much trouble. I am skilled with computers, this just isn't my area of expertise. I'm new to Minecraft. Tabs. Gottcha. I thought you ment like multiple tabs throughout Notepad++. I was wondering how that would affect it. Yeah. Tabs as in TAB key. Yeah...
